ABSTRACT In recent years, propaganda authorities in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China have orchestrated the production of posters, banners, books, news reports, and literary magazines calling for the Sinicisation of Islam. What role is played by local Hui (Chinese Muslim) writers in the production of this propaganda? This article is based on a close reading of propaganda literature from a local county between 2010 and 2017. I show that Hui writers bargain for the preservation Hui ideological and cultural particularities. While contributing to the propaganda apparatus, they bargain to find a balance between the national call for the Sinicisation of religion and their own goal of the preservation of a Hui identity distinct from Han-Chinese culture. They argue that Sinicisation in the sense of value integration benefits the propaganda goals of the Chinese Party-State in a way that is not possible with Sinicisation in the sense of cultural and ideological assimilation.
近年来,中国新疆维吾尔自治区的宣传部门精心策划了海报、横幅、书籍、新闻报道和文学杂志的制作,呼吁将伊斯兰教中国化。当地回族(中国穆斯林)作家在这种宣传的制作中扮演了什么角色?本文基于对2010年至2017年当地一个县的宣传文献的仔细阅读。回族作家为保留回族思想文化的特殊性而讨价还价。在为宣传机构出力的同时,他们讨价还价,试图在国家要求宗教中国化和维护有别于汉族文化的回族身份的目标之间找到平衡。他们认为,价值整合意义上的汉化有利于中国党国的宣传目标,这是文化和意识形态同化意义上的汉化所不可能实现的。

than structural changes in the economy through which sustainable livelihood sources may be ascertained’ (p.205). However, the author has made commendable reflections on the political voices from the state that include politicians, officials, young scholars, intellectuals, activists, and student leaders. A particular chapter on encroachment, displacement, and people’s entitlements at the Kaziranga National Park opens up a bold and complex conversation on conservation and national security (p.221). The concluding chapter ties the thread back to chapter 1 in summarizing many schemes introduced by the BJP for almost all the sections of the society, particularly the minorities and the backward classes. Dealing with the new political formations in the wake of the anti-CAA protests in Assam, it elaborates on how the pandemic has changed the entire narrative of people’s resistance where the incumbent government turned into a saviour, culminating in its success in the 2021 elections. The chapter not only reflects the populism of BJP as strategic politics but also the embarrassing failure of the opposition in strategizing electoral campaigns. Yet, it confirms as to how politics in Assam has been reduced to propaganda politics and desperate attempts to win elections with no respect for altruism. Undoubtedly, the book offers a comprehensive understanding of the ongoing politics in Assam and will certainly be helpful for anyone following the NRC and the CAA debate in the state. However, there are four areas, which could have further been elaborated. These involve the proliferation of local media houses and online portals in Assam and its ownership and capitalist motives in shaping political narratives; the impunity of the security forces in carrying out extra-judicial killings during the CAA protests, which would also offer insights on the increasing cases of custodial deaths and fake encounters in the region; women’s thoughts on the Hindutva regime or their political inclusion in the saffron party; and that of the detention centres, which draws attention to humanitarian concerns. Nevertheless, the book can be considered as not only an academic endeavour but also a major contribution for general readers and scholars across disciplinary boundaries in understanding the rise of the saffron party in India.
而不是经济结构的变化,通过这种变化可以确定可持续的生计来源”(临205)。但是,作者对政治家、官员、青年学者、知识分子、运动家、学生领袖等国家的政治声音进行了值得称赞的反思。关于卡兹兰加国家公园的侵犯、流离失所和人民权利的一章开辟了关于保护和国家安全的大胆而复杂的对话(第221页)。最后一章将线索追溯到第一章,总结了人民党为几乎所有社会阶层,特别是少数民族和落后阶级引入的许多计划。在处理阿萨姆邦反caa抗议活动后出现的新政治形态时,它详细阐述了疫情如何改变了人民抵抗的整个叙述,现任政府在那里变成了救世主,最终在2021年的选举中取得了成功。这一章不仅反映了人民党作为战略政治的民粹主义,也反映了反对党在竞选战略上的尴尬失败。然而,它证实了阿萨姆邦的政治是如何沦为宣传政治和不顾一切地试图赢得选举,而不尊重利他主义的。毫无疑问,这本书提供了对阿萨姆邦正在进行的政治的全面理解,对于任何关注该邦NRC和CAA辩论的人来说,肯定会有所帮助。但是,有四个方面可以进一步加以阐述。其中包括阿萨姆邦当地媒体机构和在线门户网站的激增,以及它们在塑造政治叙事方面的所有权和资本主义动机;安全部队在民盟抗议期间进行法外杀戮的行为不受惩罚,这也将有助于了解该地区关押期间死亡和假遭遇案件日益增多的情况;妇女对印度教政权或她们在藏红花党的政治包容的看法;还有拘留中心,这引起了人们对人道主义问题的关注。尽管如此,这本书不仅可以被认为是学术上的努力,而且对于理解印度藏红花党崛起的普通读者和跨越学科界限的学者来说,也是一项重大贡献。

Kuknalim, Naga Armed Resistance: testimonies of leaders, pastors, healers and soldiers 纳迦武装抵抗:领袖、牧师、治疗师和士兵的见证

Finally, the last chapter brings out the role of the Assam Sahitya Sabha during the period of the crisis ridden 1960s language movement. It alleges the Assam Sahitya Sabha of being largely responsible for such movement that broke up Greater Assam and pushed away the tribal groups of the hill and plains from the mainstream Assamese society. Yet, the book is inspiring in that the merit of the work lies in the strong primary data, which has been used skillfully to interpret the issue of language movement of 1960. The authors attempted to cite facts from primary sources such as newspapers, government reports, and other sources. However, there are several parts where the book lacks an emphasis. While dealing with the issue of language problems in Assam, the authors fail to establish a clear link between language problem and illegal immigration. Furthermore, Sharma and Kalita’s 1960 Sonor Bhasha Andolan is an engrossing and well-written historical work, which will enrich the researcher’s curiosity as well as provide background for revisiting the language movement of 1960.
最后,最后一章提出了阿萨姆邦Sahitya Sabha在危机四伏的20世纪60年代语言运动期间的作用。它声称阿萨姆邦Sahitya Sabha对这种分裂大阿萨姆邦的运动负有主要责任,并将山区和平原的部落群体赶出了阿萨姆邦主流社会。然而,这本书的优点在于强有力的原始资料,它被巧妙地用于解释1960年的语言运动问题,这是令人鼓舞的。作者试图从报纸、政府报告和其他来源等第一手资料中引用事实。然而,书中有几个部分缺乏重点。在处理阿萨姆邦的语言问题时,作者未能在语言问题和非法移民之间建立明确的联系。此外,Sharma和Kalita的《1960年的Sonor Bhasha Andolan》是一本引人入胜、文笔优美的历史著作,它将丰富研究者的好奇心,并为重新审视1960年的语言运动提供背景。

Diverse fragility, fragile diversity: Sinophone writing in the Philippines and Indonesia 多样的脆弱,脆弱的多样性:菲律宾和印尼的华语写作

ABSTRACT Attending to postwar Chinese-language letters in Indonesia and the Philippines reveals a stronger tendency to write within a discourse of long-distance cultural nationalism than in hybrid or local modes. Omitting cultural nationalist discourses from a view of the corpus risks skewing accounts of Sinophone production, since many authors who write in Chinese have been receptive to ethnic, cultural, and even political appeals from China. This result is also ironic, in that it is specifically production in Chinese (rather than in imperial or archipelagic languages) which is most in tension with the postmodern and postcolonial bent of the Sinophone turn. As an open system for interrogating essentialist definitions of ‘Chineseness’, Sinophone Studies should also accommodate the culturally (and sometimes politically) orthodox ‘Chinese’ strands of Southeast Asian writing. Considering non- or less-hybrid strands of the corpus in turn opens new avenues for understanding the region’s Sinophone cultural production as the result of a rich, politically diverse network with considerable scope for comparative intraregional study.
摘要关注战后印尼和菲律宾的汉语字母,可以发现,与混合或地方模式相比,在远距离文化民族主义的话语中写作的倾向更强。从语料库的角度来看,省略文化民族主义话语可能会扭曲对华文制作的描述,因为许多用中文写作的作者都能接受来自中国的种族、文化甚至政治诉求。这一结果也具有讽刺意味,因为它是专门用中文(而不是用帝国或群岛语言)制作的,与汉语转向的后现代和后殖民倾向最为紧张。作为一个质疑“中国性”本质主义定义的开放系统,汉语研究也应该适应东南亚写作中文化(有时是政治)正统的“中国”部分。考虑到语料库的非或不太混合的部分,反过来又为理解该地区的汉语文化生产开辟了新的途径,这是一个丰富、政治多样的网络的结果,具有相当大的区域内比较研究空间。

Paradoxical configuration of advocacy groups for multiculturalism discourse in South Korea 韩国多元文化话语倡导团体的悖论配置

ABSTRACT This article demonstrates that the paradoxical configuration of groups supporting multiculturalism in South Korea stems from uniquely Korean experiences of colonialism, territorial division, and modernization. Unlike other societies, conservative political force advocates for multiculturalism and blames nationalism for its intolerance. On the other hand, its political counterparts have lingered on Korean nationalism, often presented as an antipode of multiculturalism. For exploring the antecedents of South Korean multiculturalism that contributed to shaping such configuration, I use the Foucauldian theoretical concept of governmentality and genealogy. Governmentality focuses on the conditions or circumstances under which policy problems are produced and genealogy allows us to trace back to its origin of the discourse, for de-familiarizing and dismantling the widespread perception of South Korean multiculturalism. This article explores how historical and geopolitical conditions have shaped engagement with multiculturalism discourse and how the emergence of post-nationalism laid the foundation for multiculturalism policy.
摘要本文表明,韩国支持多元文化的群体的矛盾配置源于韩国独特的殖民主义、领土划分和现代化经历。与其他社会不同,保守派政治力量主张多元文化,并将其不容忍归咎于民族主义。另一方面,其政治对手一直徘徊在韩国民族主义上,这种民族主义往往被视为多元文化主义的反面。为了探究韩国多元文化主义形成这种格局的前因,我使用了傅的治理心态和谱系学理论概念。政府心态侧重于政策问题产生的条件或环境,谱系学使我们能够追溯其话语的起源,以消除和消除对韩国多元文化的普遍看法。本文探讨了历史和地缘政治条件如何影响与多元文化话语的接触,以及后民族主义的出现如何为多元文化政策奠定基础。

Defiant memories in confronting the Chinese stereotype in Indonesia: the politics of memory of Souw Beng Kong 面对印尼华人刻板印象的反抗记忆:南港的记忆政治

ABSTRACT This study considers Batavia’s first Chinese captain, Souw Beng Kong (1580–1644) as an example of the memory politics of urban Chinese Indonesians in Jakarta. It explores how and why he has been remembered in the contemporary era. While the stereotype of Chinese Indonesians has its roots in the Dutch colonial period, this study takes the Dutch institution of the captain as a framework to examine what is remembered as a way to bind group members together in a shared community of memory. This study argues that remembering Souw represents an implicit but defiant response to a long-standing negative stereotype that the ethnic Chinese in Indonesia are perennially alien outsiders.
摘要本研究以巴达维亚第一位华裔船长苏本孔(1580–1644)为例,探讨雅加达印尼华人城市记忆政治。它探讨了他是如何以及为什么在当代被人们记住的。虽然对印尼华人的刻板印象源于荷兰殖民时期,但本研究以荷兰船长制度为框架,考察了人们记忆中的一种方式,即将群体成员联系在一个共同的记忆共同体中。这项研究认为,记住苏代表着对长期以来的负面刻板印象的一种含蓄但挑衅的回应,即印尼的华人长期以来都是外来的外国人。

A multimodal approach to attitudes towards Tibet in Chinese language textbooks 汉语教材对西藏态度的多模态分析

ABSTRACT Drawing on an examination of Chinese language textbooks for Tibetan ethnic students in the Tibet Autonomous Region of mainland China, this study scrutinises the representation of Tibetan images and the official attitude towards Tibet embedded in the textbooks. Using multimodal discourse analysis (MDA), the paper investigates how government perceptions of Tibet are constructed through the co-deployment of visual and textual semiotic resources in Chinese language textbooks. This study suggests an overall positive attitude towards Tibet shown in the textbooks. However, the references to Tibet or Tibetans are usually situated as topics of the ‘past’, which indicates a sense of their being uncivilised or backwards. The positive yet stereotyped portrayal of Tibet is in line with national identity construction to ensure a unified nation-state. This study examines both text and image in textbooks in order to understand state ideologies and official attitudes towards a minority group.
摘要:本研究通过对中国大陆西藏自治区藏族学生汉语教材的考察,考察了教材中藏人形象的表现和官方对西藏的态度。本文运用多模态话语分析(MDA),探讨了政府对西藏的认知是如何通过汉语教材中视觉和文本符号资源的共同配置而构建的。这项研究表明,教科书中对西藏的总体态度是积极的。然而,提到西藏或西藏人通常是作为“过去”的话题,这表明他们不文明或落后的感觉。对西藏的正面而刻板的描绘,符合维护民族国家统一的国家认同建设。本研究考察教科书中的文字和图像,以了解国家意识形态和官方对少数群体的态度。

This study examines both text and image in textbooks in order to understand state ideologies and official attitudes towards a minority group.","PeriodicalId":45296,"journal":{"name":"Asian Ethnicity","volume":"23 1","pages":"741 - 761"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44225113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Language policies play a major role in ethnic conflict because they affect the right of speakers to choose and use their preferred language(s), and help determine courses of action to maintain, assert or defend such rights. There has been insufficient analysis on the role of social media, particularly Facebook, in strengthening or undermining the survival of minority languages and collective identity in multi-ethnic countries. This paper uses Myanmar as a case study to demonstrate the extent to which Facebook language policies influence language use practices of minorities in Myanmar. While Facebook’s selection of Burmese as a ‘Facebook language’ has privileged the use of Myanmar’s majority language at the expense of its minority languages, it has simultaneously provided opportunities for ethnic minorities to preserve and promote their languages and cultures.
摘要语言政策在种族冲突中发挥着重要作用,因为它们影响到说话者选择和使用自己喜欢的语言的权利,并有助于确定维护、维护或捍卫这些权利的行动方案。关于社交媒体,特别是脸书在加强或破坏少数民族语言和集体认同在多民族国家的生存方面的作用,分析不足。本文以缅甸为例,展示了脸书语言政策对缅甸少数民族语言使用实践的影响程度。虽然脸书选择缅甸语作为“脸书语言”,以牺牲少数民族语言为代价,使缅甸多数民族语言的使用享有特权,但同时也为少数民族保护和推广其语言和文化提供了机会。
